A member asked:

I got keloids removed surgically from my ear, can i get my ears re pierced? now my ears only keloid because i used someone elses earrings.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sounds like bad idea: That sounds like a bad idea. Some people are prone to keloids, probably genetically determined. The problem is that if a doctor cuts out one keloid, another usually forms. Steroids are usually tried such as an injection of triamcinolone into a keloid. Dermatologists with experience in keloids can help. Of course, humans are just perfect without any piercings or other artificial holes.
